Ha. That's our work. As the old guy I have run the same CAD software longer than my coworker has been alive.

I recently had to explain the internet discourse surrounding the release of KOTOR 2 to a group of coworkers who weren't yet alive when it came out.
I was alive in 2004, but I do not recall any internet discourse about KOTOR 2, care to share?
I too was alive but not old enough to know of such thing and would like to hear. It'd be like watching Warlockracy when he starts to talk about old Russian message boards discussing fallout.
How's your grey hair?
ngl, jealous. I work from home and miss that kind of dynamic.
You can go to a coffee shop and say good morning to a bunch of people for the same effect and connection
Not sure
Facing the same shit and supervisors gives a special kind of connection
I don't miss office time, but I miss the coffee/smoke breaks with some colleagues
AutoCAD? Did you start when it was DOS still?
Unigraphics it's been around since early 70s, and now rebranded as NX. Started on Unix, until Windows NT supported it via x11 emulation.
I’m over twice as old as one of my coworkers, and I feel like the universe put him there to punish me for being just as much of a little shit when I was his age.
Can you imagine the pre-child-labor laws days? You are like 55 and there is a bunch of 4 year old coworkers.
Two on the left are both transphobes. Fuck those losers.
Ngl I am pleasantly surprised to hear that the 62 year old was chill.
I have that at work. Some will talk about how they dealt with the liberalisation of the telecom market in Switzerland, and I'm sitting there thinking "I was in kindergarten at the time". One who retired two years ago was at the company starting from the year before I was born.
Edit: And I'm not even represented by the young guy in the picture lol. 1.5 years ago a zoomer joined us, and it's also been fun to not be the youngest.
